Bitcoin Price Soars as Chinese Investors Look for Safe Haven From Devaluation and Capital Controls

Many have speculated that the recent increase in the price of bitcoin ($ 542 USD on Bitfinex at time of publication) can be traced to China, where Bitcoin trading has doubled on some exchanges in the last four days as Chinese investors respond to a recent currency devaluation, and look for ways to avoid the government’s stringent capital controls.


China’s economy has been flatlining for some time now. That and the strengthening U.S. dollar prompted the People’s Bank of China to devalue the yuan by 0.45 percent last Friday to its lowest level since February 2011.


New Interest in Bitcoin


Huobi and OKCoin, the two largest Chinese exchanges, that now account for some 92 percent of Bitcoin global trading by (self-reported) volume, both reported almost double the usual trading volume over the past weekend.


OKCoin’s Jack Liu, Chief Strategy Officer, confirmed the surge in trading volume and told Bitcoin Magazine:


“After two long years, Bitcoin’s price crossed back across the USD $ 500 mark led by OKCoin’s CNY exchange – the largest digital asset trading platform in the world. The price first reached $ 500 on May 28, and was followed later on by OKCoin’s USD exchange and other global platforms such as Coinbase”.



 Huobi’s CEO Leon Li said that trading volume on their exchange has doubled in the last few days as investors look for a safe haven:


“We do think that China’s economic situation has certain influence to the price. Totally, RMB has been on the trend of depreciation for a long time, and the domestic stock market has been weak since last September. More and more Chinese investors and their hot money need a new investment market, and a convenient alternative investment like Bitcoin is easy to be accepted by the traders.”



Bobby Lee, CEO of BTCC exchange told Bitcoin Magazine:


“BTCC has seen very high trading volumes this past weekend. In fact, on our Pro Exchange, we saw record volumes on Friday, the highest ever since our launch last October. This recent rally was indeed led by the China market, which gives credit to the theory that people were predicting today’s yuan devaluation.”



Jack Liu believes that China’s economic situation is in for a long period of flat or stagnant growth.


 “We believe with the Chinese economy is entering into a “L-shaped” recovery rather than a “U-shaped” one; the dearth of mainstream, prudent investment choices has made Bitcoin a relatively attractive choice.”



However Huobi’s Leon Li told us that he sees more than just these short-term economic factors in explaining the growing popularity of Bitcoin:


“The policy environment has been more and more tolerant worldwide, and blockchain technology has been acknowledged by academic and traditional financial institutions. Even People’s Bank of China (China’s central bank) is discussing blockchain. In the long term, when the price returns to rationality, it would vibrate by those fundamentals.” 


Bitcoin Halving in July Seen as a Possible Cause of Price Increase


Both Jack Liu and Leon Li see the upcoming halving as a significant factor in the increase in the price of Bitcoin.  Liu told us:


“This is especially in light of the fact that the Bitcoin supply will be halved in just over a month, adding to deflationary supply pressures and increasing the digital asset’s investment value in the short, and long term.”


Bitcoin Continuing a Steady Increase in Price and Market Capitalization


As noted in this recent Bitcoin Magazine article about the price of Bitcoin, the digital currency is showing a steady and almost methodical ascent, with moderate increases in both price and market capitalization.


It appears that China’s bad fortune is good for Bitcoin, although Jack Liu notes that economic uncertainty is not just limited to China. He told us:


“It was not a surprise to see the upturn. After all, the whole world is facing slower growth and low to negative interest rates, not just China. “

PayPal Halts Service In Turkey Over Licensing Issues

Bitcoinist_PayPal Turkey

PayPal has decided to no longer offer their services in Turkey because the company could not get the necessary license from the local authorities. If even payment giants like PayPal are facing regulatory scrutiny, perhaps it is time for a change.


Also read: Cerber Ransomware Offered As-a-service By Internet Criminals


The news about PayPal no longer being available in Turkey took a lot of people by surprise. In fact, no one saw this decision coming, leaving a lot of business and enterprises wondering which online payment method they should use next. After all, PayPal is one of the most commonly accepted global payment methods in the world.


Licensing Issues Force The Hand of PayPal



PayPal is a US-based company which is trying to set up local “chapters’ in every country where they serve customers. In Turkey, that has always been an uphill battle, as the company has repeatedly filed for the proper licensing. Turkish authority officials have stubbornly refused to grant this operation license to the enterprise, although they never gave a specific reason as to why not.


Similar to most other countries in the world, Turkey has an authority in charge of licensing and regulating banking and payments systems. The BDDK keeps tabs on both electronic and traditional platforms. Despite PayPal being available in Turkey for quite some time, these institutions have never seen eye-to-eye.


As a result of this decision, Turkish users will no longer be able to send or receive funds as of June 6, 2016. All of the account balances will need to be transferred to a linked bank account before that date. While this situation is very inconvenient for all parties involved, PayPal Turkey will continue their quest to get the license.


For those consumers and enterprises looking for a viable replacement, look no further than Bitcoin. This cryptocurrency is globally accepted, and can be converted to and from nearly every currency in the world. With far lower fees, and no central authority being able to shut down Bitcoin, it is by far the most superior solution for sending and receiving payments today.


What are your thoughts on this service no longer being available in Turkey? Will people flock to Bitcoin now? Let us know in the comments below!
